The purpose of this consultation is to make sure we only ask for information that is necessary and proportionate to describe applications received. This consultation relates to Part 3 of our Local Planning Application Requirements and the standards that plans and drawings are normally expected to comply with. It has been drafted in partnership with Bristol City Council and Bath and North East Somerset Council. Part 2 is subject to a separate consultation and relates to what plans and drawings should be submitted. Part 1 relates to supporting documents and was adopted in 2016. Once adopted both parts 1, 2 and 3 will be used to help applicants and the council to understand what is required in order for a planning application to be valid when submitted to us.
